🎀 DRUMSTICK-METRONOME(1) 🎀

okay bestie, welcome to the drumstick-metronome page — it's a User Commands situation, and honestly it's giving "little utility that absolutely carries the whole demo folder" 💅

✨ NAME ✨

drumstick-metronome — a Drumstick command line utility for playing a metronome pattern. that's it, that's the whole gig, and it does it flawlessly 🫶

💖 SYNOPSIS 💖

drumstick-metronome [options]

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so this program? it's a Drumstick example and utility program, which is lowkey iconic of it. you can use it to play a MIDI metronome pattern. you. a metronome. MIDI. the vibes are immaculate 🎵✨

🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

the required ones (yes, you actually need these)

  • -p, --port= client:port — an ALSA client:port specification that will be subscribed in order to send MIDI events to it. the client portion can be a number or a name, like in "20:0" or "KMidimon:0". no cap, you gotta give it a destination or it's just yelling into the void 💀

the optional ones (slay, your choice)

  • -b, --bpm= BPM — tempo in beats per minute. default is 120 BPM. pick your tempo, main character 🕺
  • -h, --help — prints a summary of the command-line options and exit. the classic "wait what were the flags again" save 🙈
  • -v, --version — prints the program version number and exit. for when you need to know exactly which era of this software you're in 👑
